Časopis za zgodovino in narodopisje


The author presents in the article the beginnings of the implementation of digital computers and the development of computer centres with centralised data processing in the region on which the Regional Archives Maribor has professional competence. First activities on this field go back to the middle of the fifties of 20. century with the establishing of the computer centre in the Tovarna avtomobilov Maribor (The car factory Maribor). Afterwards were developed several more of them in Maribor, Murska Sobota, Radenci and Ravne na Koroškem. Almost all of them were reorganised in the process of downsizing or replaced with the information systems based on the powerful personal and other computers connected in the networks in the beginnings of nineties. Some of them were also destroyed in the process ofeconomic crisis in Slovenia.
